This paper deals with the estimation of population mean under two-phase sampling. Utilizing information on two-auxiliary variables, a class of estimators for estimating the finite population mean is proposed, and its properties, up to the first order of approximation, are studied. Various estimators are suggested as special cases of this class. The performance of the suggested estimators is compared with some contemporary estimators of population mean through numerical illustrations carried over existing datasets of some natural populations. Also, a small scale Monte Carlo simulation is carried out for the empirical comparison.

<abstract><p>This article deals with estimation of finite population mean using the auxiliary proportion under simple and two phase sampling scheme utilizing two auxiliary variables. Mathematical expressions for the mean squared errors of the proposed estimators are derived under first order of approximation. We compare the proposed class of estimators "theoretically and numerically" with the usual mean estimator of Naik and Gupta <sup>[<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b1">1</xref>]</sup>. The theoretical as well as numerical findings support the superiority of our proposed class of estimator as compared to estimators available in literature.</p></abstract>

A class of estimators for a finite population mean is presented for the situations where population means of some auxiliary variables are known while those of others are unknown. The results for general two phase sampling are indicated while the detailed discussion is made for the case when SRSWOR is used at both the phases. While several known estimators belong to the proposed clas~ some new estimators are identified as well. The optimum estimator in the proposed class is found to be better than the so-called chain ratio and regression estimators discu ssed by Chand (1975). Kiregyera (1984) and Mukerjee et al. (1987). The relative gains in efficiency of tho proposed optimum estimator over the others are obtained for a natural population data and found to be quite appreciable.

In the present paper, we have proposed some improved ratio and regression-type estimators of the finite population mean utilizing the information on two auxiliary variables in the presence of non-response. The two-phase sampling scheme has been used to accomplish the job of estimating the desired parameter. The expressions for the basic properties such as bias and mean square error (MSE) of the proposed estimators have been derived up to the first order of approximation. A comparative study of the proposed estimators with some existing estimators has also been carried out through a real data set.

We suggest an estimator using two auxiliary variables for the estimation of the unknown population variance. The bias and the mean square error of the proposed estimator are obtained to the first order of approximations. In addition, the problem is extended to two-phase sampling scheme. After theoretical comparisons, as an illustration, a numerical comparison is carried out to examine the performance of the suggested estimator with several estimators.

This study is designed for predictive estimation of finite population mean in two phase sampling using two auxiliary variables. Two phase exponential ratio type estimator and exponential chain ratio type estimator are proposed under predictive approach suggested by Bahl & Tuteja (1991). The expressions of bias and mean square error of both suggested estimators have been carried out for theoretical comparison. The numerical study on real life data sets as well as simulation study has been conducted to examine the performance of suggested estimators. Finally, it is demonstrated that the suggested exponential ratio estimators are more efficient than competitive estimators in support of numerical and simulation study as well.
